in the past few years, a number of companies have marketed wearable devices and mobile apps that can track our personal health data. these “mhealth” devices and apps have led to the birth of what is known as the “quantified self” — a phenomenon where individuals start tracking their behavioral, physiological, biological, and other kinds of health markers.
在曩昔的几年中，许多公司已出售可寻找咱们的自个安康数据的可穿戴设备和移动使用程序。这些“mhealth”设备和使用程序催生了所谓的“量化日子”，即个别初步寻找其行为，生理，生物学和其他品种的安康标志的表象。

a key question of interest in this ecosystem remained unanswered up until recently: is there any scientific evidence that consumer adoption and usage of these wearable devices and mobile health apps actually leads to a tangible change in their behavior, which, in turn, can show up in concrete health care outcomes? this is the question my coauthors and i investigated in a recently published paper.
直到迩来，这个生态体系仍未处置一个要害性疑问：是不是有任何科学根据标明，花费者对这些可穿戴设备和移动安康使用的选用和运用实践上致使其行为发生了本质性改变，然后可以闪如今具体的医疗保健成果方面？这是我和我的合著者在迩来宣告的一篇论文中查询的疑问。

the adoption of the mhealth app led to an improvement in both short-term metrics (such as a reduction in patients’ blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels) and longer-term metrics (such as a reduction in hospital visits and medical expenses). patients who adopted the mhealth app undertook higher levels of exercise, consumed healthier food with lower calories, walked more steps, and slept longer on a daily basis. our study shows that users of mhealth devices and apps can became more autonomous and more motivated in self-regulating their health behavior and more engaged and consistent in their lifestyle and wellness behavior, which leads to improved health outcomes.
经过运用mhealth使用程序，短期方针（例如降低患者的血糖和糖化血红蛋白水平）和长时刻方针（例如削减就诊和医疗费用）均得到改进。运用mhealth使用程序的患者每天都要进行更高水平的运动，食用更安康的食物，降低卡路里，走更多的脚步而且睡得更长一些。咱们的研讨标明，mhealth设备和使用程序的用户可以变得愈加自立，可以愈加主动地自我调度自个的安康行为，并使其日子方法和安康行为更具参加性和共同性，然后改进安康情况。（原文中最终一句“can became”疑似语法差错，或为“can become”）
